More expensive to feed, but worth it.

500m ranges?

Post by olympian »

Shooters,

Is there a running list of the 500m silhouette ranges in the US?

I am looking at possibly moving to a new job and would love to see if there are any 500m ranges in the vacinity, i.e Boise, ID area.

Thanks in advance

The Ironman shoot out in Montana is bound to be a lot closer to Boise, ID, than it is for us western Washington shooters. :)

Vale OR, somewhere around Melba ID, Blackfoot ID. I don't know if any of them are active. A NRA shoots are listed in "Shooting Sports." It is hard to find an active HP range now days.

Don't know how far you would consider driving but Lander, Wyoming has monthly SB and HP matches for about the first half of the year. It's roughly eight hours from Boise.

It is hard to really know how far I can travel until I get there. Honestly, I thought there would be several 500m ranges not too far from Boise considering some people consider the ID, UT, MT, WY states to be the BPCR epicenter. Admittedly, I have been spoiled having a range within 60 miles.

BPCR matches are held at the Blacks Creek Range which is just about 15 miles from Boise. Check out Shooting Sports under BPCR matches for contact info.

When did they extend their range out to 500. Last time I was there they only had 300 and shot reduced targets.
